So, who's back? I notice gendy wheeled herself in (we should get rid of the handicap access), and um, hmm, BigBlueHead showed up to post in a thread about evolution. And Xev. Anyone else? I notice spurious is banned. Did he call americans fat again?
We can't say "cunt." Spurious was banned for revealing that james r is a woman. And homophobia. Welcome back. Want some ice cream?
I am back temporarily only long enough to post about Linux. However I may continue reading here and comment on things I find of interest. I will probably not start any of my own threads unless they're sciencey. No more bizarre stuff for me. Also I had an idea where I would conduct experiments on myself and post about them here, a few ideas were: 1. What happens when you're always nice to people? 2. Does a synergistic herbal complex designed to decrease limbido actually work? (The one I tried before was merely a single herb). 3. How long do you need to diet in order to loose weight? I would then follow-up on these trying each for like 24 days.
invert is still shy, nick is staying away, red is only lurking (I see you, stud!) and sock and oneraven are busy with real lives. spurious is fine and sends his kisses. welcome back sammy.
So when is it we can't, I mean cannot, say cunt? Is it the actual word we cannot say or is it the context that it is said in that is important? What is wrong with cunt anyway, it's a feminists favourite word. In the real world, real people use these types of taboo words all the time to express a feeling or to make a point and I think they are perfectly fine if used in such a context. In fact, certain people cannot string a single sentence together unless it contains at least 5 expletives, I know I can't when I'm on a roll with a bunch of mates (m and f). However, I agree that using these words for gratuitous personal insult should not be allowed, but there should be leeway just as there is in real life.
And hi you too. I come in search of enlightenment and entertainment. I leave unenlightened, unentertained. But I see that darksidZz is back. So I'm sure there's light at the end of the tunnel.
The Pope is on a transcontinental flight. To pass the time, he is doing a crossword puzzle. He leans toward the archbishop seated next to him, and asks, "What is a four letter word for woman, ending in the letters u-n-t?" "Why aunt of course" the archbishop replies. The Pope then asks, "Got an eraser?"
So, hold up. Was this a real conversation that I've forgotten or is there some sort of subtlety going on here? I don't recall ever having a private conversation with you Sam. I might be forgetting? As to shy. Me? Pshaw. Not in this medium at least.
